Titre : Field Hollers And Freedom Songs, the Anthology : Featuring the collected works from the Sweat Equity Investment in the Cotton Kingdom Symposium Type de document : e-book Auteurs : C. Sade TURNIPSEED Editeur : Vernon Press Année de publication : 2023 ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 9781622735044 Note générale : copyrighted Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : Taking place annually in “the most southern place on earth,” aka, the “Cotton Kingdom,” the Sweat Equity Investment in the Cotton Kingdom Symposium offers a platform to honor, celebrate, and recognize the legacy of the African Americans who labored in the cotton fields of the Mississippi Delta. The symposium intends to trigger discussions and provide a space where the histories and contributions of those Americans can be heard and learned from. Born in the antebellum south, the “soul of America” came to be through the tearful occupation of planting, chopping, picking and ginning cotton, where it was then brined within a system of enslavement, sharecropping and international trade that in so many ways provided America its “greatness.” Carefully compiled from works presented at the symposia, this anthology looks to expose the tortured “cotton-pickin' spirit” embedded in America's soul. A spirit that is rendered in song, chants, spoken word and field hollers, and revealed in this volume through the selected articles, lyric poetry, proverbs, speeches, slave narratives and workshop proposals. The rich and varied content of this book reflects the uniqueness of not only the Mississippi Delta but also the histories of those who lived and worked there.
